Confronting Hip Resurfacing and Big Femoral Head Replacement Gait Analysis
نویسندگان
چکیده
Improved hip kinematics and bone preservation have been reported after resurfacing total hip replacement (THRS). On the other hand, hip kinematics with standard total hip replacement (THR) is optimized with large diameter femoral heads (BFH-THR). The purpose of this study is to evaluate the functional outcomes of THRS and BFH-THR and correlate these results to bone preservation or the large femoral heads. Thirty-one patients were included in the study. Gait speed, postural balance, proprioception and overall performance. Our results demonstrated a non-statistically significant improvement in gait, postural balance and proprioception in the THRS confronting to BFH-THR group. THRS provide identical outcomes to traditional BFH-THR. The THRS choice as bone preserving procedure in younger patients is still to be evaluated.

A comparison of leg length and femoral offset discrepancies in hip resurfacing, large head metal-on- metal and conventional total hip replacement: a case series
BACKGROUND A discrepancy in leg length and femoral offset restoration is the leading cause of patient dissatisfaction in hip replacement surgery and has profound implications on patient quality of life. The aim of this study is to compare biomechanical hip reconstruction in hip resurfacing, large-diameter femoral head hip arthroplasty and conventional total hip replacement. METHOD Sixty patie...
متن کاملThe influence of femoral head size following total hip replacement and hip resurfacing on hip biomechanics during walking, stair use and sit-to-stand
Due to geometrical features, it is claimed that larger femoral heads in total hip replacement (THR) are superior in achieving normal biomechanics than smaller ones; and that hip resurfacing (RSF) is superior to THR. This has not been conclusively proven. Most studies have investigated level walking, which may not be demanding enough to highlight what could be small biomechanical differences bet...
متن کاملSurface Replacement of Hip Joint
Surface hip replacement more commonly known as hip resurfacing arthroplasty is a type of a hip replacement that is different to a total hip replacement. In a total hip replacement femoral head and neck are removed and a metal stem is inserted to the femoral shaft. In hip resurfacing articular surface is shaved and a metal cap (Fig 1) is inserted preserving most of the bone in femoral head and n...

The acetabular cup is implanted in much the same fashion as an uncemented total hip arthroplasty, however, implantation of the fe...

In 1938 Marion Smith-Peterson placed a cobalt chromium cup on a reshaped femoral head to perform the first hip resurfacing.15 Also, in 1938, Philip Wiles performed the first total hip replacement.17 Both procedures revolutionized the treatment of hip arthritis. Most surgeons are opposed to hip resurfacing because it is difficult to perform and there is a high rate of success with total hip repl...
